RIP Dennis Farina

I don't know if I'm getting too used to living in a developed country or what, but 69 seems a little youngish still. Anyway, RIP to a good actor.

 

Always loved the guy, one of my favorite character actors.

I loved Dennis Farina, but he pretty much played himself in every role.

 

It's a bad year for losing fantastic character actors, and Dennis Farina was that, if nothing else. I can't imagine anyone else playing his role in either the brilliant Snatch, or the hilarious Get Shorty. All I can say is that if Farina always played himself, I sure wish I could have knocked back a few with the guy.

 

Loved him in Snatch, and some other movies. Cool guy. RIP.
